x%5En is the same as x to the nth power.
x%5E%28-n%29 is the same as 1/(x^n)
x%5E%281%2Fn%29 is the same as the nth root of x.
x%5E%28m%2Fn%29 is the same as nth root of x raised to the mth power.
-------
cubed root of 5*x would be
%285%2Ax%29%5E%281%2F3%29 which is (5*x) raised to the (1/3)d power.
